The mass spectrum of chlorine includes three peaks at mass-to-charge ratios of 70, 72 and 74.

The order of the heights of these peaks is:

Using enthalpies of formation Δ_fH, calculate the enthalpy change for the following esterification reaction.

CH₃COOH_(l) + C₂H₅OH_(l) => CH₃COOCH₂CH_3(l) + H₂O_(l)

Select the data from the 'Selection of Enthalpies of Formation and Combustion' shown above.

(ii) the iodine in the hexane turns brown

(iii) the iodine molecules stop moving between the two layers

(iv) the concentrations in each layer stop changing
